Binder Bets De Souza Off Same Straight
Level 37
: Blinds 4,000,000/8,000,000, 8,000,000 ante
Belarmino De Souza raised to 16,000,000 in the hijack with J♦10♦, and Bernhard Binder called with a mystery hand (later revealed to be J♥10♥) in the small blind as Jean-Noel Thorel called in the big blind with Q♥2♥.
The flop of K♥9♦2♦ checked through, and Binder bet 37,000,000 on the Q♠ turn, and only De Souza called. Thorel folded his two pair.
Binder then bet 200,000,000 on the Q♣ river, (which would have given Thorel a full house) and De Souza, who only had one time bank left, laid down his straight.
